“Our mindset is different when we play away in the Champions League. We know how passionate their supporters are.

“At Al Ahly, Wydad and Esperance the atmosphere is something else, but we just have to go out there and play our normal game. 

“It is one of the best crowds I have ever played [in front of] because it is not my first time being in Tunisia and playing against Esperance. I think this clash is going to be way better than the last time I was here.” 

Morena, the 30-year-old right-back or right-wing who caught the eye with his performances helping Bafana Bafana to the bronze medal at this year’s Africa Cup of Nations, has vast experience at this level of the Champions League. He expects Esperance to push for an early goal. 

“The first few minutes they are going to come guns blazing at us because they are playing at home. I expect them to mostly go on the sides.

“We need to try to close the sides and force them to come inside where we will have numbers.”
